    An answer to the pretended remarks on Mr. Webber's scheme , and the Draper's Pamphlet; shewing, That the Remarker hath not made the least Objection to the Scheme, which the Draper recommended, nor disprov'd the least Fact which he advanc'd: As also, that all that hath been alledged by the Gentleman's Magazine against it is groundless, and that the Truth of the Calculation is undoubted. To which is added, A Copy of the Letter which Mr. Webber received, concerning its being stipulated that France should have our Wool; which Letter also contains a short, but pathetick Address, to the Electors of Great-Britain. Written at the Time of the last Election, and altogether as necessary at this Time, with some other Reasons; setting forth the Probability of such a Stipulation also, A Petition, intended to have been presented to Parliament, praying, an Act to confirm the Charter which His Majesty granted Mr. Webber: Which Petition was not refused, on account of such a Charter not having been granted, but as a Private Bill that came too late. By John London.

    London, John, merchant. | Date: 1741
